Despite all the doom and gloom that is bouncing around out there due to this writers strike, some shows may actually benefit.

Kristin at eOnline is saying that ER’s producers are concerned that they will not have time to wrap up all the storylines in this final chapter of the medical drama if the walkout lasts too long. If that is the case, NBC may be forced to bring them back for a 15th season, albeit a shortened one, possible, to tie up all the loose ends.

See? It’s not all bad.
